After a while

What a Truth!

I would rather live my life as if there is a God,
and die to find out there isn't,
Than to live my life as there isn't
and die to find out there is.

A New Years Day Poem for my Husband Kerry

So a year has passed since you came
Into my life
You became my husband
And I your wife
So many things we have seen and done
Good times, hard times
All rolled into one
So as we begin another year
Lets love as we have in the past
And I know our love
Will last and last

A happy birthday for my husband Kerry

Well, yesterday (February 26th 2010) was a wonderful day. It was my husband's birthday.I had planned a trip to Gatlinburg and the Smokey Mountains as he had never been. In retrospect it was one of my better decisions. We had a Wonderful time. I had been there many times before, but seeing it through Kerry's eyes made a big difference. Kerry wanted to go to the highest peak (Clingmans Dome on Mt. Leconte) about 6,800 ft. up but it was blocked due to 40 ins. of snow there. We did make it to Newfound Gap which is over 5,000 feet. There was around 9 ins. of snow there...very, very cold, and very, very windy!!!!!!

We also went to the Wind Tunnel in Pigeon Forge. Kerry thought
this was very cool as he is a skydiver and he thought it would be
a great way to teach someone to skydive.

But I guess the highlight of the day (for him and me) was that on
the way home Kerry spotted a Mellow Mushroom Pizzeria. He did not know
there was one in that part of Tennessee and as I had never been we went
and I have to say it was the Bomb! They make all their dough
from natural ingredients so it is not only healthy but tastes great.

All in all it was a wonderful day and we already have plans to go back
and hike some of the nature trails there..especially one called Laurel Falls
as there is a Laurel Falls here in Rhea County that we have already hiked to.

Now back to waiting on warmer weather!

Oh, yea...we did some Go Kart racing and I kicked his tail..
(not really, although the attendent told Kerry he saw where I tried to run him over!)

Mrs. Walker

Well, yes I did get married to the Love of my Life. No planning or anything. Although we had talked about marriage for awhile, we just got up Monday morning and said "Let's get married." And so we did and are very happy. Surprised just about everyone but that's O.K. Wyn, Kerry's brother went along for the ride, and I was very happy to have him along. Kerry and I still reside in Evensville with our "children" MoJo, Mia and Laurel Snow ( aka Kitty Lou) . Kerry works at Advance Auto Parts in Dayton, and I work for two Home Health companies as a Nursing Assistant/Direct Support Staff. Needless to say our lives are very hectic (but happy). Hiking and all that stuff seems to be sort of a thing of the past right now, but come Spring we'll be back in action (hopefully!) We are also planning a Native American spiritual ceremony sometime in the future.

Catching Up

Well, lot's been happening. I did pass my State exam with flying colors.
I made an 88% on written exam, and (this is unbelievable to me!)
only missed one on my Skills Test (I didn't transport dirty linen correctly)
I was so afraid I had failed that I would not go online to check my scores.
Kerry had to do it for me!
I now have a job working at a Skills & Rehab Training Facility working with developmentally handicapped individuals. There is a lot of training with this job (almost like I'm back in school).
As I speak the weather is great, but it has been sooo rainey for the last couple of weeks. I about went stir crazy.
Kerry has been working a lot doing some specialty carpentry work; building a deck for his brother and working on some things for a friend of his who has just opened a Bar and Grill. It's funny, I have been helping him load lumber, shoot the nail gun, level things off etc...and have had a ball. I have learned a lot.
Oh yeah, Kerry and I were involved in a wreck Oct 4th when this young girl hit us broadside on the passenger side of the truck. Luckily, we weren't seriously injured.
She was driving on a revoked license and had no insurance. Only 17 years old too.
Well, will keep you posted.
Until next time!
